It's January. Time to renew expired business permits, car insurances, professional licenses and more. My friend, a contractor, called me up last night with some concerns. She is a licensed class C contractor and that worked fine for a while. However, class C is still class C - meaning there is a ceiling or a limit to the type and magnitude of construction that you can bid on. My friend wants to go big time this year. She's aiming for class A. I told her that it takes years of experience and numerous finished constructions to qualify for class A. She would also some basic equipments like: concrete mixer, pavers, excavators, cranes, lifts, dozers, trucks, graders and more.

I advised her to start out slowly but surely by buying equipments one at a time. I told her that if she plans on buying a gantry crane, it's best to get the RTG - Rubber Tired Gantry Crane. The Shuttlelift Company may well be the best in line of gantry cranes. Founded over 20 years ago, the company has a long list of satisfied customers whose "lifting" problems were solved by its bank of innovative and talented engineers. Shuttlelift Gantry Cranes has been trusted for the past two decades.
